Everyone is tipping against us
6 - 0 for Geelong on AFL Teams tonight. Cats firm favourites with the bookies. Seems like no one thinks we can win. Why should we be surprised? No one thought Brisbane would win in 2001, or Port in 2004, or Hawthorn last year. People tipping the cats can't quite believe that the Saints can actually succeed after decades of not. They will only believe it when our guys shove it down their throats about 5pm this Saturday.
Go Saints!
Go Saints!

It works in our favour to go in as underdogs.
But our boys haven't put a foot wrong all year.
They will deliver.
And to win as (undeserved) underdogs will make it all the sweeter.

Our team needs 100% support.

'Can I aplogise in advance!!!"

I really think it's only people who deep down are sh1tting themselves that come out with crap like that... it's false bravado, and it'll get em nowhere.saint patrick wrote:Had a Geelong supporter interupt me talking about the footy with a workmate say"Comiserations for this Saturday!!"

It only adds to the pressure on them.
As far as I'm concerned no one tipping us is ideal, and just adds to the freakish perfection of this season.
The cats have an appointment with reality... like the dogs, the pies and the crows did when everyone thought they were flying.

Well, let them focus on Roo. There are 21 other blokes more than capable.mullet wrote:And according to "everyone" apparantly Rooey is no good under pressue either......um player of the finals series so far.
Why worry about "everone" if they aint sainters then they are "no one"

People forget that despite our supposed 2nd half of the season slump, we flogged teams that were real challengers.

Agree Mark ..we just beat the side that lost to the Cats by 14 in a less intense game a week earlier...and Fridays night against us was the dogs grandfinalmarkp wrote:Which game were you watching on friday?saintspremiers wrote:Let's face it....if we play like we did last Friday we could get slaughtered.
BUT.....
IF we play to our full ability, then we should win.
I thought it was an incredible game.

For all the attention, the analysis is quite shallow at this time of year. Almost everyone tipping Geelong is doing so because they've been there before or because they belted the Pies.
'They lost last year. Surely they won't let another one go.'
'The Cats love poor weather and it looks like rain. The Saints aren't as good away from Docklands.'
Apparently we're also a one man team and our defence isn't as good as it looks.
